@slimdude.caReposted by @fisherdanar.bsky.socialDisasters have become political. And politics has become a disaster.
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialAnyone know of recent polls or surveys looking at (likely) voting behavior and exposure to disaster / access to disaster aid? Maybe @samlmontano.bsky.social or @nathanielstinnett.bsky.social ??
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialThe figure is from FOX--which is notable for covering these patterns but does weird things to maps...

@1technodiva.bsky.socialReposted by @fisherdanar.bsky.social46% of states that voted for Harris got FEMA aid 85% of Trump states did Blue states waited much longer for the aid they got. This is anathema not FEMA.
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialTrue!

@fisherdanar.bsky.socialThis newsletter for @drilledmedia.bsky.social by @amywestervelt.bsky.social is a must read for anyone interested in climate activism. My personal take is that the movement is in abeyance for all these reasons and more--(stay tuned for that article soon 🤞): drilled.media/newsletter/t...

@fisherdanar.bsky.socialNo one should’ve surprised that the Trump Administration is exempting fossil fuel projects from environmental review. Anyone who is believing these guys and making deals to bundle clean energy in a permitting bill should be questioned.
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialDefinitely give it a try--there are lots of ways to visualize data coming in from an audience in real time.
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialPoll Everywhere!
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialWhy should you be an apocalyptic optimist like me? That's the question I asked during my keynote at the annual meeting of AASHE this week. Check out these amazing responses to the questions from the 300+ person audience (and thanks to @katharinehayhoe.com for turning me on to this tool!):
@fisherdanar.bsky.socialThis weekend we will see what a Hurricane looks like on the East Coast of the US in 2026. Hurricane Isaias is traveling over very warm waters in the Gulf (estimated as more than 2 degrees above average for October), which can lead to more flooding.

@fisherdanar.bsky.socialJeez—every day costs Americans and misinforms the public
